Oasis The Listening Bar

The Biggest D.C.-Area Restaurant Openings in August 2025 | Eater DC

"A vinyl-forward hangout in Clarendon, this hi-fi bar leans into sake, Japanese highballs, whisky and sake flights, and the team’s locally made JoyBoy beer, with a playlist built from a wall of records spinning Japanese jazz, neo-soul, Thai pop, and K-pop on a snazzy sound system used by rotating DJs and live acts. The food menu balances meaty skewers and seafood mains with sushi rolls from master chef Jose Ventura—like the namesake Oasis roll of lump crab, avocado, cucumber, shrimp, and lobster—and the team behind Sisters Thai keeps hours from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily, till 11 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays." - Tierney Plumb
